Just Because

The Constitution is not an instrument for the government to restrain the people, it is an instrument for the people to restrain the government - lest it come to dominate our lives and interests".- Patrick Henry - On Friday, the Trump administration released their annual report to Congress on White House Office Personnel. It includes the name, status, salary and position title of all 377 White House employees. The report also said that  Trump decided not to take a dime of his salary ; instead he donated it to an amazing cause! See below. The report also showed that President Trump is far better at saving money than Obama was. The total annual White House salaries under Trump are $35.8 million vs.$60.9 million under Obama, a savings of $25.1 million. Here are some other key findings: There are 140 fewer employees on White House staff under Trump than under Obama at this point in their respective presidencies. Thirty-nine fewer staffers are also dedicated to The First Lady of the United States (FLOTUS). Currently, there are only five staffers dedicated to Melania Trump vs. forty-four staffers who served Michelle Obama (FY2009) However, it's what the report said Trump did with this salary that has everyone talking. Instead of taking his salary, Trump donated all $400,000 to the Department of the Interior where it will be used for construction and repair needs at military cemeteries!   AMAZING! It's so great to have a President who loves our brave military men and women so much! Oh, and where's the media coverage of this? That's right, they don't cover anything decent that the President does... Francois Ellis

Hilarity ensues

The Left’s Best Freak Outs to SCOTUS Ruling on Trump Travel EO Ninth Circuit Court hardest hit? The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization, said today’s decision by the U.S. Supreme Court allowing a limited version of the Trump administration’s “Muslim ban” executive orders to take effect ignores the Islamophobic origins of the policy and emboldens Islamophobes in the Trump administration More hilarity ensues.  Here's my favorite Christians who celebrate the Supreme Court decision to allow part of the "Muslim Ban" forget that Jesus himself was a refugee/migrant.

OYEZ OYEZ OYES MOFARKERS

Republicans steamrolling Dems to confirm Trump judicial nominees This may be the least covered major story of the Trump era, so far at least. While the media and Democrats are obsessed with increasingly bizarre Trump-Russia conspiracy theories, and failed attempts to flip Special Election congressional seats, an enormous change to the federal judiciary is well underway. FULL DEAL I was on the Trump bandwagon from day one; for 3 reasons. He wasn't a politician He had the resources to fight what we now call "the Deep State." And, most importantly, he could stop the federal courts from turning us into a unicameral dictatorship. I am well pleased

The Note

Which means 75%

Bloomberg: "55  Percent Chance Trump will win reelection" Bloomberg endorsed Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton in 2016 and spoke at the Democratic National Convention, calling Trump a "dangerous demagogue."

GLOBE FLOPPER

I think this comes closer to the mark.

Investigating Dem Fraud

“As long as I get to count the votes, what are you going to do about it?”

Even Pelosi's Face is a Fraud Donald J. Trump on Twitter: "I will be asking for a major investigation into VOTER FRAUD, including those registered to vote in two states, those who are illegal and...." On Trial: There is Evidence to Back (At Least Some of) Trump’s Illegal Voting Claims ... but CNN’s Jake Tapper, and many other pundits, assert there is “no evidence” to support Trump’s belief about a large number of illegal votes cast in the election. Pelosi: Trump Voter Fraud Claims 'Strange' and 'Startling' Cummings, Democrats Ask States for Evidence of Voter Fraud Voter Fraud Is Real. Here’s The Proof Data suggests millions of voter registrations are fraudulent or invalid. That’s enough to tip an election, easily. Jill Stein’s Michigan recount exposes voter fraud in Democrat-controlled Detroit. Turns out in 37 percent of the Detroit precincts more votes were cast than the number of people who showed up to the polls to vote Obama's ACORN Connection to Voter Fraud They are new voter registration applications turned in by the community organizing group, ACORN, ... 5,000 applications in this one county ... and so far we have identified about 2,100  as fraudulent ... California DMV licensed 800,000 undocumented immigrants ... another state “motor-voter” law, AB 1461, that starting in 2017 will automatically register most licensed California drivers to vote Usual suspect CNN piped in" "The move would expand on Trump's interest in the unproven claims he has made since November's election alleging millions of illegal votes were cast, without citing any evidence." Hmmm. How does one substantiate unproven claims?  That's right; one investigates. Besides,"evidence" of likely Dem VF is abundant, and stretches back to the 1960 election when verified fraud in Texas and Illinois vote counts handed JFK Nixon's victory.

Obama advises Trump - "Make sure you have a birth certificate."

Obama's advice to Trump: Don't use executive orders so much He also cautioned against engaging men for illicit sex who may someday squeal on you.

Court is in Sessions

IMPEACH YAY TRUMP!! My hope and expectation was that Trump would make Rudy Giuliani Attorney General.  Because I want someone who will go balls-out to, as he promised during the debates, send the Clinton crime family to prison.  And, although he really couldn't include Obama as a target, there is no way, objectively, to not include him as well. Then I heard Trey Gowdy rumors. I'm okay with that. But, yikes!  When I saw, first thing this morning, that he asked "best friend" Jeff Sessions to take the job, I was way pissed!     But wait .... Sessions was ranked by National Journal as the fifth-most conservative U.S. Senator Sessions has taken a strong stand against any form of citizenship for illegal immigrants.  Advocated for expanded construction of a Southern border fence One of 25 senators to vote against the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (the bank bailout), Sessions has been an opponent of same-sex marriage and has earned a zero rating from the Human Rights Campaign, the United States' largest LGBT advocacy group. Sessions was "heartbroken" and found "it beyond comprehension" when President Obama claimed that cannabis is not as dangerous as alcohol He voted against the Matthew Shepard Act, which added acts of bias-motivated violence based on sexual orientation and gender identity to federal hate-crimes law Sessions joined five Republican colleagues in voting against Sotomayor's nomination in the Judiciary Committee. Sessions pointed out that Kagan “has a very thin record legally, never tried a case, never argued before a jury, only had her first appearance in the appellate courts a year ago." And, finally In 1986, Reagan nominated Sessions to be a judge of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Alabama. Sessions's judicial nomination was recommended and actively backed by Republican Alabama Senator Jeremiah Denton. A substantial majority of the American Bar AssociationStanding Committee on the Federal Judiciary, which rates nominees to the federal bench, rated Sessions "qualified," with a minority voting that Sessions was "not qualified." At Sessions' confirmation hearings before the Senate Judiciary Committee, four Department of Justice lawyers who had worked with Sessions testified that he had made several racist statements. One of those lawyers, J. Gerald Hebert, testified that Sessions had referred to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) as "un-American" and "Communist-inspired" because they "forced civil rights down the throats of people." Whoops. I confused Sessions with political hack Sen. Thad (Mississippi).  Hey, I have a lot of stuff in my head.  But this is a brilliant choice. But, now, If he doesn't appoint John Bolton as UN Ambassador, and Sarah Palin as Sec/Interior, there will be hell to pay! Have a nice day.

Votes and Rewards

I am now sufficiently crabby I voted. I thawed. I ate. We voted a straight American ticket. After nearly 9 days of a bread and water/rosary fast, I was starting to tremble. Came home and ate this crab cake that Hucker gave me 8 days ago. It was delicious. By the by, we were standing in line and MoSup heard a woman grumble "why in heaven do they have to check I.Ds?  Who the heck is going to cheat?"MoSup turned around; recognized the lady as a known Obamunist, and replied, "Democrats." Actually, she did not say that until we were in the car. But it was a sweet thought.

Trump Surge Freakout

Obama's Thug Culture

Trump Surge Freakout: More Violence Against Supporters As Election Day nears and the GOP nominee rises, attacks on his backers, signs and buildings are escalating Physical attacks on Donald Trump supporters and their personal property appear to be growing increasingly common as Election Day approaches and passions intensify. [...] In late July an unidentified 60-year-old man was shot in the leg at Winston’s Bar on Cleveland’s East Side. His assailant, Darnell Hall, 45, shot him after their discussion of presidential politics grew heated. The attacker “was enraged that anyone in the overwhelmingly African-American bar would support the GOP nominee,” the Plain Dealer reports. Hall later surrendered to police and was charged with felonious assault. Two UCLA students told Sean Hannity on Oct. 25 they’ve seen a lot of anti-Trump violence on campus. Haley Nieves said protesters crashed one of their pro-Trump rallies. “They were stomping on the American flag during the event and even attempting to burn it afterward.” On Oct. 26 a man dressed as a construction worker took a sledgehammer and a pick-ax to Trump’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, Deadline Hollywood reports. The vandalism obliterated Trump’s name on the sidewalk. Afterwards, a homeless black woman guarded what was left of the star. The woman held a sign that reads, “20 Million Illegals and Americans Sleep on the Streets in Tents. Vote Trump.” Clinton supporters raided the woman’s shopping cart and hurled abuse at her.As an angry mob tore up her signs, one man told her "You spewed hate and you got hate." He added, "You got exactly what you were dishing out. I told you. I warned you." ETC.,ETC, ETC .. This thug-culture was created by Obama in 2008, and its legacy, along with millions— literally millions— of undocumented Islamo and third world aliens will plague us like a cancer until (unless)  they are excised. There's yur realpolitiks.
